Our Opinion:-

Improved 2018 Model in New Blue Colourway

The Cortes Octagon 8 is a really clever design and can be used as a Garden Screen house buy simply erecting the tent inner. This gives a 15.7m2 mesh screen house with sewn-in groundsheet and a clever hinged entrance door. Ideal to for family gatherings especially in the evening when the little flying insects like to come out and annoy. But by adding the flysheet, you convert the Cortes Octagon 8 into a large one room tent, in a style reminiscent of a Mongolian Yurt.

Its steel octagonal frame is going to ensure this tent will stand up to the weather and with its striking colour-way the Cortes Octagon 8 will stand out on any campsite. We really like this tent and its unusual hinged door just adds to the fun.

What the manufacturer says:-

The Cortes Octagon 8 provides a full 360° view of your surroundings. Ample living space and the ingenious hinged door gives it a homely feel on the campsite. This spacious tent has a multitude of uses, it can be dressed as luxury glamping bedroom, a playroom for the kids or a perfect tent for festival gatherings. The flysheet can be removed and the Octagon 8 transforms into a bug-proof screen room perfect for the garden. The tent comes with a wheeled carry bag and packs down compactly for easy transportation and storage.

Feature-Highlights on one view

WeatherTec™ 2000/3000/4000 - waterproof system

A tent’s waterproof properties are measured using a rating called its hydrostatic head. If a tent has a hydrostatic head of 2000/3000/4000mm*, it can hold a 2/3/4 metre* column of water on its surface before any leaks through.

The Ministry of Defence UK classifies a hydrostatic head of 800mm as waterproof.

Coleman® uses polyethylene (PE) groundsheets which are relatively heavy but provide guaranteed water protection. PE groundsheets are ideal for family and active tents where a very light weight and small pack size are not essential.

HINGED DOOR - quick and easy to come and go

The patented Hinge Door from Coleman® makes it quick and easy to come and go from your tent. The rigid door and door frame increases the tents structural integrity making it feel more like a home away from home.

Ideal for family and group camping, you can close the tent door without needing to zip it, making your tent and belongings more accessible without having everything on display or needing to continually use noisy zippers when coming or going.

Fire Retardant - safety first

The fire retardant characteristic of our material ensures that the fabric will not flare dangerously out of control and will selfextinguish, giving time to escape in the event of an emergency.
